Javier "Chicharito" Hernandez, who left the Costa Rica game with an injury, is fit to start, but Carlos Vela has been dropped to the bench. Chicharito will pair with Raul Jimenez up top.

In the midfield, Jonathan dos Santos makes way after a strong night against Costa Rica, with Jesus Molina and Diego Reyes set to partner in the center. Hector Herrera moves outside with Miguel Layun coming up from left back to play on the other wing and Atlas defender Luis Reyes taking the left back role.

And in goal, Osorio is going with Alfredo Talavera, who he considers better in the air than last match's starter Guillermo Ochoa.
